Well, congratulations. If you already owned a K3 I assume the new radio
provided very few surprises. I also own two K3s but I am embarrassed to
admit that both were factory assembled. I don't know why since I managed to
build a K2/100 with most of the accessories without any problem. I am even
more embarrassed to admit that I haven't even peeked under the hood of
either radio and I really should do that. I have heard a rumor that they
are driven by hamsters pedaling madly on wheels but I guess I can only
dispel that by looking inside. Who knows. If I do that I may find that
feeding them will even increase the performance further. Perhaps we will
meet one day on the air but after this message I suspect if you hear my call
sign you will probably just change bands!

K3 5553 arrived about 24 hours ago.. Five hours last night and 3 today
and she is on the air..!!
What a joy to assemble the K3 and other Eklecraft equipment. Not a
single thing was missing (actually had extra hardware it the kit), every
test was successful and all calibration went without a hitch.
The is my second K3.. The first was factory assembled and I really
wanted to try building one. It was GREAT..
Thanks to all the team Elecraft for a wonderful product..
